        Sitting up in the bed, the auburn haired girl looked around in boredom before her gaze fell on her leg. It lay there propped on a pillow, covered by a cast up to the knee, Sighing, she looked at the door sadly. He still hadn't come to visit.
        According to some of her classmates that had come to visit, he was blaming him self for not protecting her from the beowolf. Sighing again, she lied her head back into the pillow. It had been a field trip to go test their weapons they had just made but Magnhild malfunctioned mid-transformation when a beowolf charged her.  Her shoulders now slumped, she began to close her eyes. "Rennnnnn....I'mmm boredddd....come visit meeeee..."  Resigning herself to not seeing him until she got out, her eyes shot open and heart began to race as she heard a soft knock and a familiar voice.
        "Nora? Are you awake?" Grinning wide, Nora almost bounced out of the bed in excitement.  "The door is unlocked Ren!" At that, the door opened slowly as he walked in.  "There you are sleepy head! Where have you been? No wait, you've probably been doing classwork. How is everyone? I can't wait to get back so I can fix Magnhild. I wish I was as smart as you.  I mean, look at Stormflower, it worked great on the first try. But anyways I'm getting off topic, how are y-...What is that Ren?"
        Breaking away from her rambling, Nora pointed at her best friend's head. At her words, the raven haired teen blushed gently, a rare occurrence for Ren. Running a hand through his hair, Ren brought a bright pink streak to focus.  "I....I thought it might cheer you up a bit....it is your favorite color...."  He muttered softly, finding himself unable to look her in the eye.
        Going silent, Nora started to blush gently and her breathing slowed.

"Never knew a time, when you weren't by my side
The one thing I could always count on
Always there for me, you've been my family
Even when all other hope was gone"

It felt like her heart was out of control, what was wrong with her?

"But for awhile things have seemed so different
Like it's the same but still brand new
I can't believe it, when did I start to fall for you?"

No...it couldn't be. This was Ren she was talking about. They were just friends...

"Have I lost my mind, have I just been blind
Never to have seen you might be
Everything I need, everything I dream
All along has it been right in front of me?
We've been together for a long long long long time
I've never thought that you and I could be a thing
I can't believe it, this is happening"

Could...could it be? Was she falling for him? He was talking, but her own thoughts were blocking out his words.

"I think oh whoa what am I to do
I didn't know that I would fall in love with you
And what to do right now I haven't got a clue"

"Nora? Are you listening?"

"I'll just bite my tongue and when I want to say I love you I say
Boop"

"Nora?"

"Boop"

"Nora please talk to me..."

"Boop"

        Looking up at him, Nora gestured for Ren to lean in close.  As he did so, she smiled wide and pressed a finger against the tip of his nose. "Boop"
        Looking confused, Ren's eyes darted from side to side as he tried to figure out what she did to him. "Boop?"  Nodding, she smiled and did it again. "Boop. It's okay Ren, I'll be good to go soon. Besides it was just an accident." At her words, Ren smiled softly. "Okay Nora."
        Smiling back, Nora bounced excitedly. "Now you need to sign my cast!" As she said so, she pointed at her cast. Slowly, the two teens sweatdropped as they saw most of the space filled by the words "Save for Ren".

Giggling softly, she smiled at him. "Sorry Ren"
In response, Ren sighed with a soft smile. "Noraaaaa..."
